"As an imagemaker, "Where do you get you inspiration," is one of the questions most frequently asked of me. I have several pat answers but the truth is we humans are unavoidably interesting. We voluntarily have our faces injected with poison, "fin" sharks for soup, grind up animal horns in hopes of an erection, and count boredom among our most common afflictions. Our species serves up unending inspiration on a platter. Inspiration pushes me to unsettle with originality, question with juxtaposition and scratch away at peoples' minds." -BILL CARMAN

AFA | At AFA, we are inspired by wildly imaginative artwork that indulges the senses and engages the emotions with layers of symbolism and dark complexity. We exhibit paintings, drawings and sculptures created by extraordinary established and emerging artists who are highly skilled and have a unique vision.
